Neurocysticercosis,
a kindergarten teacher suddenly lost her voice in class, convulsed all over her body, and was immediately sent to the hospital. Because of allergies to puncture, she could not undergo MRI examination. When everyone thought it was a brain tumor At that time, Dr. House began to give her a large dose of steroids as cerebral vasculitis, and the patient began to improve, but suddenly convulsed at night, ventricular fibrillation, and even cardiac arrest, and had to CPR and electrical defibrillation. A male doctor sneaked into the patient's home and found pork, which was later identified as neurocysticercosis, and found larvae in the X-ray of the leg, which proved the conjecture and the treatment was successful. At the same time, the knowledge of doctors, communication with patients, and collection of medical history are very important.
